Enstep has numerous product features and functional capabilities, as demonstrated in products. It is a fully functional, enterprise-wide solution for companies managing portfolios of energy commodity-related transactions, such as electricity, natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, and coal. Its functional capability covers the spectrum from production marketing to retail; and includes distinctive features to support natural gas processing and inventory management. Enstep's graphical scheduling capabilities are unique and visually appealing.

However, its most unique and distinguishing feature is its deal type factory, which enables application users to create, using application forms and metadata, new types of transactions without programming one single line of programming code. Each new transaction type automatically decomposes risk, values profitability, and aggregates credit exposure, along with every other business process, without any need for programming support.

Application users will therefore no longer need to handle certain difficult transactions off-system, usually in some off-line spreadsheet. Each transaction type takes only a few hours to setup. Enstep's transaction set is dynamic, and evolves as business evolves.

Enstep Users can easily create complicated transaction types to represent structured transaction using drag-n-drop mouse operations, too. Structured transactions can then be sent to Enstep's simulator to determine a probability of profitability using Monte Carlo simulation analysis. Such capability can save weeks of time and effort valuing structured transactions.
